Please attach updated copies of your gameex.ini and log.txt files from 18.87 immediately following a crash for review. At this point I cannot triage any further as I cannot replicate the issue on my side. @Tom Speirswill need to dig further into the issue following his previous response and as he has the time to do so. That said, I ask for continued patience as we are dealing with the Holidays and all things that real life throw at us that preclude an immediate response.

You're welcome! So is all working as expected now or still problematic? If any issues with the new version, please attach new copies of your pinballx.ini and log.txt files. Otherwise, have a Merry Christmas!

Always for the sake of expediency provide copies of your pinballx.ini and log.txt files when initially reporting an issue and any additional support files as requested throughout the triage process. This requirement has not changed. Thank you.

I tested adding videos to the integrated MAME path \MAME\defaultthemevideos using names for the categories and it does not work. I believe this will have to be an enhancement request.

Agreed. Your version is too far out of current so will require updating to the latest version and updated pinballx.ini and log.txt files if the issue persists.

Please attach copies of your pinballx.ini and log.txt files (no copy & paste of the contents or .zip files) in response to this thread. A screen capture of the error message may also be of help. Thanks

Please upgrade to version 6.36 (latest) and try again - please post updated copies of your pinballx.ini and log.txt files if issue is ongoing after upgrade. Thanks!

I think your copy & paste got stuck there! Not sure but it may be based off your "Basic Member" status that you are not seeing the "Cover Photo" option next to Edit Profile. Not much I can do if that is the case I'm afraid.

Please attach your pinballx.ini as well when reporting an issue. Thanks.

Great job!

Probably best to just test with the latest VP 10 RC and PinballX version going forward unless suggested to keep things from getting confuzzled.

Has been a while can you please attach copies of your latest pinballx.ini and log.txt files with ghd results from the latest version?

We did and thanks!

Nice looking cab but not sure it is worth $5K to me at least.

You're welcome!

When that happens to me, which is rare, I download the latest version from the downloads section and install over the top of my existing version. Looks like you are quite a few versions removed as the latest version is 18.85. Give that a go and let us know if you have any further issues. Thanks!

Well, nothing to write about yet. Seems that my order was in China from time of order 11/30 until 12/8 and then shows going through customs in Berlin, Germany as of 12/12. Next stop will probably show as New York customs. So maybe 1st week of January receipt.

Please attach copies of your pinballx.ini and log.txt files when reporting an issue. Thanks and Merry Christmas!

It should not be an issue.

Are you using the recommended LAV codecs?

Below is a list of sites offering free and discounted games. Some you will have to dig for via searches. I have found that being a member of the platforms I get email notifications of specials. Leveraging “wish lists” whenever offered also helps when special pricing goes into effect or a game that is in development is initially released. Almost all offer AAA releases. This list is not 100% so please reply with links to any sites not listed here and I will update this post. Good Old Games aka GoG.com – Per the site “We make games last forever. A home for building and playing your curated game collection, GOG is a digital distribution platform that puts gamers first and respects their need to own games.” Many older classic titles and new indy fare. Regular discount and free offers. Steam – Per the site “Steam is the ultimate destination for playing, discussing, and creating games.” Free and discounted game specials all the time. Epic Games – Seasonal and monthly free and deeply discounted game specials. Amazon Gaming – Requires an Amazon Prime account. Redemption is via Epic Games, GoG.com, Steam, and Amazon Gaming platforms. Humble Bundle – Per the site “Humble Bundle sells games, ebooks, software, and other digital content. Our mission is to support charity while providing awesome content to customers at great prices. We launched in 2010 with a single two-week Humble Indie Bundle, but we have humbly grown into a store full of games and bundles, a gaming membership service, a game publisher, and more.” Constant rotation of games, book & comic bundles with charity in mind. Fanatical – Per the site “We're on a mission to help gamers from all over the world find amazing games at amazing prices. Fanatical lets you quickly find what you want from a selection of over 10,000 officially licensed digital games from over 1,100+ publishers.” Constant rotation of games & comic bundles. Similar to Humble Bundle in that you can choose your price for a set number of titles. Redemption of keys via Steam.

Moved topic to correct subforum.

Agreed. 23H2 dust hadn't settled and 24H2 was rushed and the Windows 11 community is paying for it in spades. Not just here but across various other forums for software and devices. Thanks. I seem to recall that mentioned in another thread now that you mention it. I think keeping current and staying the present course is best, assuming your patience can handle the anticipation.

Why can't you go back to the non-release candidate version of VPX?

Nothing else to do until Tom takes a look and responds with request for further action. Since the issue you are presenting is not being reported by others, it may take longer to find an answer. Also, keep in mind the holidays may limit availability as most of us here are here in our time outside of "real life" responsibilities.
